KENPO Prance of the Tiger - Jamie Seabrook

[@diegomarshall]

I see it's a complex technique. With a little touch of Thundering Hammers in the middle. I usually watch different variations or interpretations of one single technique. Now I realize that each one of those makes a valuable contribution for variable street situations and personal reactions as well. Thank you very much Master Jamie for sharing this advanced technique in the system.

You are so welcome, Diego. Thank you!

Prance of the tiger 🐅 I like 👍🏾 this self defense technique and the footwork with it!! Very economical moment.

[@SeabrookMartialArtsAcademy]

This is a great technique. I had Larry Tatum do it on me at a seminar. It was a very enlightening and painful experience :)

[@kemtaedott]

Also one of my favorites. Well done

[@SeabrookMartialArtsAcademy]

Thanks, so much Terry. This wasn't one of my favorite techniques until 2005 when I was GM Larry Tatum's uke during his seminar in Las Vegas. It's fair to say that I got an all new appreciation for how ferocious this technique really is :) Since that time, I've tried to provide my own insights into making this technique work for a street self-defense scenario.

@@SeabrookMartialArtsAcademy I saw GM Tatum do it on a seminar tape in Chile and it definitely changes how you see this technique

Thanks, great explanation of the technique, it’s one that I have struggled to apply with flow but that’s inspired me to revisit it.

[@SeabrookMartialArtsAcademy]

Thanks for your comment Michael. I really appreciate it.

[@stevenslames305]

I like the idea of grabbing. I dont like to lose control of my opponent but by grabbing his shoulder you keep control ,love it

[@SeabrookMartialArtsAcademy]

Yeah, I like that level of control as well.

[@Roamingronald]

I like the flow of this technique

[@SeabrookMartialArtsAcademy]

Thanks very much for your comment. It can also be a very painful experience if you are the uke. I remember Grandmaster Larry Tatum doing this technique on me back in 2005. That was quite the experience but, of course, it was an honor to be hit by him.
